Year 3[Green and Emerald Class]

• Solve one-step and two-step problems involving numbers, money or measures, including time, choosing and carrying out appropriate calculations


• Represent the information in a puzzle or problem using numbers, images or diagrams; use these to find a solution and present it in context, where appropriate using £.p notation or units of measure


• Follow a line of enquiry by deciding what information is important; make and use lists, tables and graphs to organise and interpret the information


• Identify patterns and relationships involving numbers or shapes, and use these to solve problems


• Describe and explain methods, choices and solutions to puzzles and problems, orally and in writing, using pictures and diagrams


• Read, write and order whole numbers to at least 1000 and position them on a number line; count on from and back to zero in single-digit steps or multiples of 10


• Partition three-digit numbers into multiples of 100, 10 and 1 in different ways


• Round two-digit or three-digit numbers to the nearest 10 or 100 and give estimates for their sums and differences


• Read and write proper fractions (e.g. 3/7, 9/10), interpreting the denominator as the parts of a whole and the numerator as the number of parts; identify and estimate fractions of shapes; use diagrams to compare fractions and establish equivalents


• Derive and recall all addition and subtraction facts for each number to 20, sums and differences of multiples of 10 and number pairs that total 100


• Derive and recall multiplication facts for the 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 10 times-tables and the corresponding division facts; recognise multiples of 2, 5 or 10 up to 1000


• Use knowledge of number operations and corresponding inverses, including doubling and halving, to estimate and check calculations


• Add or subtract mentally combinations of one-digit and two-digit numbers
• Develop and use written methods to record, support or explain addition and subtraction of two-digit and three-digit numbers


• Multiply one-digit and two-digit numbers by 10 or 100, and describe the effect


• Use practical and informal written methods to multiply and divide two-digit numbers (e.g. 13 × 3, 50 ÷ 4); round remainders up or down, depending on the context


• Understand that division is the inverse of multiplication and vice versa; use this to derive and record related multiplication and division number sentences


• Find unit fractions of numbers and quantities (e.g. 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 and 1/6 of 12 litres)


• Relate 2-D shapes and 3-D solids to drawings of them; describe, visualise, classify, draw and make the shapes


• Draw and complete shapes with reflective symmetry; draw the reflection of a shape in a mirror line along one side


• Read and record the vocabulary of position, direction and movement, using the four compass directions to describe movement about a grid


• Use a set-square to draw right angles and to identify right angles in 2-D shapes; compare angles with a right angle; recognise that a straight line is equivalent to two right angles


• Know the relationships between kilometres and metres, metres and centimetres, kilograms and grams, litres and millilitres; choose and use appropriate units to estimate, measure and record measurements


• Read, to the nearest division and half-division, scales that are numbered or partially numbered; use the information to measure and draw to a suitable degree of accuracy


• Read the time on a 12-hour digital clock and to the nearest 5 minutes on an analogue clock; calculate time intervals and find start or end times for a given time interval


• Answer a question by collecting, organising and interpreting data; use tally charts, frequency tables, pictograms and bar charts to represent results and illustrate observations; use ICT to create a simple bar chart


• Use Venn diagrams or Carroll diagrams to sort data and objects using more than one criterion
